Toa Tahu Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Hey hey hey...LucasArts...pushing the date to Winter 2003 is not that like it isn't it,people?! http://www.lucasarts.com/products/jediacademy/features.htm
The Truthful Liar Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 That's certainly interesting. Perhaps Raven will be working on the game more extensively (gameplay) this time. :]
StormHammer Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 I just hope they take as long as they need to get a fully-polished game out of the door. There were a couple of show-stopping bugs in JO's SP on release (Lando and the two Kyles among them), so I hope they use any extra time to get kitted out and go on a Big Bug Hunt. I know they have deadlines to meet, but Lucasarts should allow them more flexibility this time, IMHO.
Toa Tahu Posted April 14, 2003 Author Posted April 14, 2003 Hopefully it is as StormHammer said.Anyone?
Mex Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Winter? Well I hope they make it better and make sure there are no bugs.

What bugs are you refering to? I'm not sure if I know about them.

I'm not sure if I know about them. There was a bug where Lando would survive the attack in the hangar with the Lady Luck, but did not board the vessel (just stood around loitering in the corner when I played it)...which meant he did not tell you about fueling the ship, which meant you couldn't complete the level (even if you knew what to do and where to go). The 'two Kyles' happened to me when I loaded a saved game...suddenly I had two kyle models inhabiting the same space, and I could move one but not the other...and it looked really, really weird - two heads, four arms, that sort of thing. Other people experienced it too at the time, along with other glitches. So hopefully this kind of thing will be kept to a minimum out of the box.
Taos Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 I kinda figured this would happen. Oh well, I just hope they make the necessary improvments/adjustments to make the game better.
HertogJan Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Why didn't they figure that out a little earlier?? Now I was hoping for a fall release, now it's winter
Master_Payne Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 This may sound stupid but... what month(s) are Winter, here is the season b4 winter (dont know how its said in english, but is when the leaves falls from the trees), anyways what month(s) are the winter refering in Lucasarts will be helpfull, then I add one more for the delay(?). Today I'm too lazy to pick a dictionary
HertogJan Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 The season before winter is fall, or autumn. And between 21 december and 21 february it's winter, so when they say witner 2003, they should release it between the 21st and 31st of december 2003, hahaha!!
Master_Payne Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 well thanks, hope it comes out before xmas, and now I think it would be better to pick an atlas...
Blademaster_109 Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 it could be wrong. For star wars galaxies they have it down for Q1 of 2004, but the developers on the board said no way its coming out in june or july. Keep ur hopes up i am.
HertogJan Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 My guess would be beginning of November... I think that month is cold enough for LucasArts to call it winter :D
eastcoast2895 Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 i bet it's coming out just in time for the holiday season. but as long as its polished and looks nice and shiny, i'm happy
Blademaster_109 Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 yeah, if i was a game developer i would want a game to come out right before christmas cause then kids wouldn't have to buy it their parents would.
Necrosis Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Edit Taos - That's probably not a good idea if you want to continue to be a member here. Moving on, I guess it's a good thing that they pushed it back... as long as everything is near PERFECT. I wish they let the public know a bit more about the game
Blademaster_109 Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Keep this in mind we want the game to be the best it can be, right.
Rad Blackrose Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Originally posted by Necrosis I just hope they aren't listening to those retards at lucasforums. Those people will ruin the game for sure. That would be a disaster.... I wish I could go over and flame the crap out of all of them... Carry on...
t3rr0r Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 Originally posted by Rad Blackrose Carry on... i think/hope he was being sarcastic.
Blademaster_109 Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 i thought he was, it was just funny. nothing more, nothing less
Toa Tahu Posted April 15, 2003 Author Posted April 15, 2003 It's ok,I didn't know initially,fortunately I didn't get any of the bugs mentioned above.Let's just hope that the change in release date is just to make things smooth.After alll,I might get it for christmas. Anyway,in the meantime,let's go get KotOR!Pushed back to Summer 2003!Kinda funny,eh?At first both of them were to be expected in Fall 2003,then one changed to Summer 2003 and one to Winter 2003.Guess LEC won't want to shoot themselves in the leg after all,eh?
GhostLotus Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 Well looking at other games that are pushed back, its usually not because they want to put more wokr into it, its mostly purely because of marketing reasons. They dont want 3 star wars games released at the same time so they might hold one back just for that sole reason, so bear in mind that the title might be finished but just not released.
coupes. Posted April 16, 2003 Posted April 16, 2003 well they have put it back to Fall 2003 now, it must have been a mistake.
